Configuring iSCSI Connections
To use the storage array, you must configure iSCSI on both the host server(s)
and the storage array. Step-by-step instructions for configuring iSCSI are
described in this section. However, before configuring iSCSI, you must install
the Microsoft iSCSI initiator and the MD Storage Manager software. For
more information on installing, see "Installing the Microsoft iSCSI Software
Initiator" on page 35 and "Installing and Configuring the Storage
Management Software" on page 35.
NOTE:
Although some of these steps shown in this section can be performed in
MD Storage Manager from a management station, the iSCSI initiator must be
installed and configured on each host server.
Before You Start
Before you begin configuring iSCSI, you should fill out the "iSCSI
Configuration Worksheet" on page 77. Gathering this type of information
about your network prior to starting the configuration steps helps you
complete the process faster.
Terminology
The table below outlines the terminology used in the iSCSI configuration
steps later in this section.
